Strategy Overview
Litwick is a unique Pokemon that has the exclusive Fire / Ghost typing, which grants it three immunities when combined with the Flash Fire ability. That seems nice, but sadly the typing is also a curse for Litwick, with weaknesses to very common types in Dark, Ghost, Water, and Ground, as well as taking extra damage from Stealth Rock. It is also quite slow, meaning it needs Trick Room support to work well. Despite the many drawbacks, Litwick still hits hard and has a good movepool, which allows it to work as a good sweeper under the effects of Trick Room.
